| Welcome to RB jwelles! Most members have a sump system, with live rock and live sand as their main filtration with a lot of flow from powerheads. |

| RO Unit Hi best way to make saltwater is with a RO Unit. Mandarin Goby's need a well seasoned tank with lots of life in your rock they tend to feed more on the rock. they may do well if you supplement plankton, but i have never tried it. Hope this helps! |

| Re: Intro from Florida Reefkeeper i got some live rock from foster and smith let it run for a few months. after acclumating it and then got a manderin. i have never seen him eat anything i put in the tank, but the boy is faaaaattttttttyyyyyyy! i see hive picking at rocks and glass al day long. at night when i shine a light into my tank it is a soup of bug like things. this guy is in no danger of starvation. your live rock alone shoul do the trick. |
